Albert Einstein said he thought mainly in terms of music, and that art, science and religion are all branches of one tree. To seek knowledge as a kind of walk through the mountains, not knowing what to expect is an adventure Creator provides opportunity. However curiosity if not accompanied by some moral direction can lead into obsessions, wasted time or learning how to commit crimes. How I wish people did NOT seek knowledge on weapons of destruction, or abuse of the earth's resources in oil! Strangely da Vinci did himself explore weapons development to some degree, against the grain of his fine character.
